If by a feminist you mean a woman who scoffs at the idea that men are better at anything than women but is gleeful whenever it is suggested that women are better at something than men If by a feminist you mean a power-seeking, bitter woman who will let no one close to her, least of all a man If by a feminist you mean a woman who will not accept the seat on the bus offered to her by a man, or even let the door be opened for her by a man then I think a better word for what you mean is "sexist," and I despise sexism.

If, however, by a feminist you mean a woman who will not let men push her around or limit her capabilities, in the political, economic, or personal realms of her life If by a feminist you mean a woman who has embraced her femininity instead of rejecting it and guardedly allowed herself to be pursued by the man whom she believes is best for her If by a feminist you mean a woman who does not scold the man who treats her like a lady then I have no problem whatsoever with feminism.
